<h3 style="text-align: justify;">Responsibility of the Operator</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Your first concern must be for the safe operation of the MEWP, the safety of the people working with you and also the safety of anyone else who could be affected by your actions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You must always follow the manufacturer&#8217;s instruction manual and at no time attempt to or operate outside the recommended limits. Proper care of the MEWP is a major factor in maintaining safety. You must never ignore or interfere with any safety device provided on the machine.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Remember if driving on the public highway you must hold the relevant license for that class of vehicle.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Need a license to operate a MEWP? Enquire with Galmon today! Galmon is a Ministry of manpower (MOM) approved training provider.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Call +65 6862 2277 or send us an <a title="Contact Galmon" href="http://www.galmon.com/contact" target="_blank">online enquiry here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Prime Showcase for Construction, Building and Mining<br />
The Business Bridge to Vietnam’s Infrastructure Market<br />
(7 – 10 December, Ho Chi Minh City)</h3>
<p>ConBuild Vietnam 2011 – The fifth International Trade Fair for Construction, Building and Mining – Machinery, Equipment, Materials, Vehicles, Technology and Services, ConBuild Vietnam 2011, which has benchmarked itself as the pre-eminent and trusted international platform for firms seeking unmatched opportunities in Vietnam, will again return to Ho Chi Minh City, to be staged at Saigon Exhibition and Conference Center, from 7 – 10 December.</p>
<p>In its fifth edition, ConBuild Vietnam 2011 returns marking its pivotal role in Vietnam’s infrastructure development as a key conduit for expanded private sector participation; with projects amassing about US$160 billion over the next ten years, according to the Ministry of Planning and Investment, including the need to build up to 5,000 kilometers of highways, between 300 and 400 kilometers of railways and dozens of seaports. There will be vast investments from both the private and the public sector into these infrastructure projects.</p>
<p>The Vietnamese government is encouraging this under the PPP model, which has proven itself a viable method of raising funds for infrastructure projects in Vietnam. This system remains attractive because it combines private sector financial, supervisory and administrative support for the public sector in areas such as construction, management and finance.</p>
<p>ConBuild Vietnam will again showcase around 200 exhibitors from Europe and Asia including pavilions from Germany, China, Korea and Singapore. The Organizer is working closely with local governments and the industry associations such as the Vietnam contractors Association, HCM Real Estate Association and HCM Architects Association to promote ConBuild Vietnam and to attract quality visitors from both the private and public sector to be at the exhibition in December.</p>
<h3>5th International Trade Fair for Construction, Building and Mining – Machinery, Equipment, Materials, Vehicles, Technology &amp; Services<br />
Saigon Exhibition &amp; Convention Center (SECC)<br />
Ho Chi Minh City<br />
7 – 10 December</h3>
<p>Vietnam’s mineral resource pool is vast and remains under exploited with deposits of some 60 minerals such as coal, copper, bauxite, chromium, gold, tin and zinc. Currently underdeveloped and dominated mostly by small mining firms, the government has recognized a need to exert more control over Vietnam’s mining industry, both to hasten its growth and guide its development. The mining industry contributed to ten percent of the country’s GDP in 2008 which is a good indicator of its vast potential if fully developed.</p>
<p>Held in close collaboration with ConBuild Vietnam 2011, is the newest component to MMI’s Infrastructure Initiative, Electricity &amp; Lighting Vietnam 2011, International Trade Fair for Electricity and Lighting in Vietnam. Together, these complimentary fairs create a unique platform from which to access the huge opportunities inherent in Vietnam’s burgeoning economy.</p>
<p>Brought to you by Messe Muenchen International (MMI Asia Pte Ltd), in cooperation with The Ministry of Construction in Vietnam, and the support of 31 other local and international related ministries and associations, the 5th International Trade Fair for Construction, Building and Mining – Machinery, Equipment, Materials, Vehicles, Technology and Services will be held in the Saigon Exhibition &amp; Convention Center (SECC), Ho Chi Minh City, from the 7 – 10 December 2011.</p>
